I dunno if that's really the problem. Jerry Brown is a "native-born" Californian, whereas Ronald Reagan was born and raised in Illinois, started his career in Iowa, and didn't move to California until later in life. I don't have a problem with electing a state official who was born somewhere else, as long as their first priority is serving their adopted state.

On the other hand, the fact so many "California" voters are themselves foriegn-born natives that have NOT assimilated one bit, IS a huge problem, in my opinion. The motor voter law has been an absolute disaster, and lead to people like Loretta Sanchez replacing people like Bob Dornan. Foreign countries shouldn't be deciding who are our officials are.

That too...

Of course, with the U.S. government's chain immigration, as they wave in one million foreigners per year, (with no jobs available) the entire country will go the same away...

California has half of the illegal aliens in this country. Half.
